FIX OR ADHESIVE? 

Under certain conditions listed below, the Fortelock PVC tiles must be fixed or glued to the substrate.

The fixation is a connection of the tiles with the floor. Which sufficiently guarantees the stability of the PVC tiles when driving with heavy loads. To fix the tiles, we recommend the UZIN universal fixation 6473 .

Absorbent substrates absorb the thin division line. And reduce the anti-slip effect. Therefore, before applying the adhesive, the floor must be penetrated with a suitable penetration.

The fixation is an application with a water-soluble paint on the floor, which fixes the PVC tiles in the desired place .

DIRECT SUNLIGHT

We recommend gluing the tiles in places that are exposed to direct sunlight. These are mainly rooms with many panes, around the south-facing areas, skylights, etc. PVC tiles exposed to direct sunlight can heat up and expand faster than the rest of the floor.

 Notice:

In halls with larger driveways or in areas that are driven on by heavy vehicles, we recommend gluing the PVC tiles approx. 1.5 m from the driveways towards the center of the hall. 

HEAVY FORKLIFT AND HEAVY DUTY AREAS

Some forklifts and lifting ants can damage the joints of Fortelock PVC tiles. These are, for example, heavy forklifts with small wheels (solid rubber tyres). This is particularly the case with electric forklifts for heavy loads, where the battery is located above the drive axle. If you use this type of stacker. We recommend testing the tiles with the forklifts. Before deciding what type of PVC tiles to use and whether to fix them.
Notice:
 PVC tiles ECO expand more than PVC tiles industry.
EXTERNAL HEAT SOURCES, CATALYSTS and furnaces
Can heat up the floor significantly, causing the tiles to expand. In order to avoid such a process, you should glue the tiles in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe heat source. Be it in front of stoves, or where a parked vehicle acts as a catalyst or another heat source is present.
Note: The maximum load may be lower if the surface is uneven and/or tiles made from recycled materials are used.
